Juno

Any thoughts on the name Juno? I like the fact she was a goddess and I think it goes well with my other daughter's name (Maia).
I've also considered Juliet - maybe I like the J sound?!
I'm just worried Juno is a bit 'out there'....but at the same time, I do like it for reasons stated above!

I love Juno & it's perfect with Maia.

Both Juno and Juliet were on my short list so I think you have good taste. Don’t worry about being out there, names become very normal very quickly so just go with what you like.

Cosmoa · 12/03/2018 20:47

I love the name Juno! And as someone said.. Names become normalised quicker than you think so go with it Smile

bridgetreilly · 12/03/2018 20:47

Juliet is one of my favourite names, so I'd pick that, but I think Juno is fine if that's what you prefer.

Sophronia · 12/03/2018 21:00

I like it, Juliet is lovely too

Elmosmum · 12/03/2018 21:08

Aww Juno is on my list too but same as you I was a bit worried it's a bit out there...

Blondemother · 12/03/2018 21:09

I am biased, but Juno is fabulous Smile

FrozenMargarita17 · 12/03/2018 21:11

I love Juno. It was a serious contender for dd !

pipilangstrumpf · 12/03/2018 21:11

Love Juliet!

Zaya71 · 12/03/2018 21:53

I love Juno, but my sister named her cat it a few weeks before my DD was born so it got crossed off the list!

SpringMayHaveSprung · 12/03/2018 21:57

I don't think it's that far out there nowadays.

I like it very much.

MelvinThePenguin · 12/03/2018 21:57

I do think of pregnant teenagers and my toddler DD saying ‘d’you know what?’

I like it though. I wouldn’t flinch at someone calling their DD that.

Japanesejazz · 12/03/2018 22:02

I like it too. So much, that it’s my dogs name

I know a LOT of canine Junos, just FYI. Cool name, though.

DiegoMadonna · 14/03/2018 00:42

I like it and I think it goes PERFECTLY with Maia.

SuperBeagle · 14/03/2018 02:45

I love Juliet, but I think Juno and Maia "go" better together.

Snipples · 14/03/2018 03:17

Juno is lovely.

jigsawpiece · 14/03/2018 04:59

I'm not sure about it. It's the name of a space probe that's arrived at Jupiter recently and it sounds like a boy's name to me (because it ends in o as Italian male names usually do) June, however is clearly a girl's name.

JosephWearsNoPants · 14/03/2018 05:47

Laura and maia
not a fan of juno

Kpo58 · 14/03/2018 07:07

I'm not a fan of Juno either. I'd be subconsciously thinking, is it short for Junior?
